FinLit 101 is our revolutionary new financial literacy program designed primarily for high-school aged youth, but also applicable for others who want to develop a foundational understanding of money and financial concepts. Content is delivered through short, fun video segments, and includes quizzes and assignments for each topic.

FinLit 101 also provides teachers with the ability to create private class groups, mark student’s quizzes and assignments within the site, and monitor individual progression. Points are earned by progressing through the program, as well as by being active and participating in discussion topics and other activities. Students can progress through the program in a linear fashion, or individual modules and topics can be selected.
